HTTP is by default a state-less protocol, so any request coming from a client is
completely independent from possible previous requests as far as the HTTP server
is concerned.  That is why sites that require some form of state to be kept on
connection use cookies to store some session ID (that is used on the server to
retrieve the state data associated with that user).

So...  binary connections in DGD are definitely sufficient (and if you want, you
can easily code support for keepalive in it also).
